Pros:
Huge collection of material from many of the best producers of porn - now showing 55,156 scenes.
Excellent rate of new material during a freaking pandemic that has greatly affected other sites' ability to produce updates - 9 today, 10 yesterday.
Great variety of material from the dark pervy stories of Pure Taboo to the cute light girl/girl material of Lez Cuties to the solo glam of Femjoy to the weird fetishy stuff of Peghim.
There is no other site that has done as well during this period at continuing to provide lots of top tier product - AND has teamed with Evil Angel & Wicked to present Live Shows multiple times a week.
If you want a sampling of hundreds of different sites, from Deeper to Wicked to Evil Angel to Mr Skin to Club Seventeen to Burning Angel, there is no better site you could join than Adult Time - they currently list 283 "channels" - and while some of those channels are small series such as Girlsways' "Moms on Moms" with 15 scenes, Rocco Siffredi has 2208 scenes.
Cons:
It can be hard to tell what is or is not part of the core of Adult Time - channels are announced with great hoopla, but then you'll be waiting quite a while to see another scene - such as Amateur Allure, which has exactly 1 scene on Adult Time.
Pix & Video, which seemed like it was part of the core of Adult Time to begin with, hasn't had an update since August.
Be careful in reviewing the terms of membership to be aware of what you're getting. Some new members have been disappointed to find out that their membership did not include downloads, so read carefully and send emails to the site's C/S if you're confused by what you're reading. In my experience, they are very good at responding.
Bottom Line:
At a time when many adult sites are having difficulty producing updates at all, it's kind of incredible to have a site that is providing this quantity of high-quality updates every single day. Take a look, for comparison, at Videobox. At one time, it was a pretty nice site with a good rate of updates of recent DVD's by high quality studios. Now it's a shadow of it's former site - a lot of old crap, very little recent material and if you search for great stuff they used to have, it's gone. That's not the case with Adult Time. They're building strong relationships with other studios to provide some of their material - like the Deeper & Vixen material. And yes, they should be more clear to differentiate between partners that are all in with Adult Time and partners that are on Adult Time on a "sampler" basis. But honestly, that's a minor criticism of a site that's doing so much right. The site looks really good, it's not all bunged up with ads all over the place, the navigation on the site works well. You can set a dial as to sexual preferences, as with Evil Angel's site, you can search by channel or actors or most viewed. New videos can be downloaded in 8 different choices from 160 p to 4K (2160 p). Photos connected to scenes are easy to get to and download. The quantity varies greatly - some scenes have very few photos connected to them, some have hundreds. There are 201 high-res photos with the latest Lez Cuties scene, for instance. They download at a resolution of 5760 x 3840. Download speeds on the site are excellent, in my experience.

Updated:
11-15-2006:48pm (Update History) Reason: I failed to copy all of my Bottom Line comments before the site ate them as it always does. So I had to recreate them.
Pros:
Excellent photography of cute - mainly white - babes.
If you like a site with a distinctive personality, this is definitely one since all photography is done or directed by the site owner, Alex, who also does a blog on the site with sample photos from recent (often that week's) shoots for members to give feedback on that often guides when a model's material will be posted to the site and which sets will be posted to the site when.
MANY of the U.S. models are exclusive to the site or have done very few shoots other than for this site.
If you like cute blonde small breasted babes with their pubes shaved masturbating with large dildos, or using odd toys or speculums, this is the site for you.
Updates have kept up in the COVID-19 era - every day in the past couple of months there has been a new posting of a vid or a photo shoot - not an easy task when it's 1 guy behind everything - a few are posts of shoots from long ago, but not many.
The Met-Art site design is a great improvement.
Cons:
My frustrations with this site are personal. This was my absolute favorite site at one time. That was quite a while ago and there are 2 reasons for this - one that is a choice of the site and the other was a result of economics. a) Same-ness of models - This site is cute small-breasted white girls - period. OCCASIONALLY a Latina like Rachel Rivers will sneak in. VERY occasionally an Asian babe like Vina Sky will sneak in. But that's it. In an era when W4B, as 1 great example, is finding scads of new really hot Latinas, and when there are lots of great-looking young Black & Asian models working, the lack of variety of models on this site is a really bad thing.
b) The other thing that really hurt the excitement level on this site tremendously was the end of their trips. Back in the early 2000's, ALS Scan would take a group of models on trips to the Bahamas or elsewhere to shoot for a week - and the material there was the best & most exciting on the site. The last trip was 2009
Bottom Line:
I'm ending my subscription to ALS Scan because I'm no longer excited by the site for the 2 reason in my cons. The end of the trips was not their fault - it was an economic decision they felt they had to make.
Selling the site to MetArt kept the site going and enabled the site to have a MUCH-needed redesign, but it didn't bring back those trips, unfortunately. It's too bad because they're no longer creating the awesome, fun, exciting material that the mix of girls on the trips created. if you are a new member of the site, I can't urge you enough to check out the ALS/Vacations section of the site - easily found from the home page. There is a ton of awesome material they did on those trips. The only trips they kept up - since they're all about the cute young small-breasted white babes - are the trips each year to Budapest & Prague to find and shoot with hot young Euro-babes. Why they have never developed relationships with agents that could find hot young Latinas for them to shoot with or hot young Black or Asian women (add a trip to the Philippines or Thailand, for crying out loud) is utterly beyond me.
Stats - the site currently lists 454 models. There are various ways to sort - most recent, most popular, alphabetical. The site shows 3,434 galleries - most galleries have over 200 images. It's easy to scroll through the images, which look great on the site.
Recent photo shoots are available to download in various sizes. the large zips are in the 600+ mb range and the photos download as 3233 x 4850 pixels.
There are 3,171 films on the site. Both photo shoots & films are categorized as to masturbation scenes, girl/girl (maybe 1 per month), BTS/photo shoot, interview or remastered if that's the case - the site goes back to about 2000. Recent videos are downloadable in 7 options from 270 p to 4K. This is all on Met Art's site design so it all works well, including the older material. You can search by model name, or most popular, or most recent, etc.
For collectors, the zips of photo shoots give a ton of info - site name, date set was posted, name of set & model name. For videos, they just give the name of the site and the set name.

Pros:
Hot girls
Lots of existing content
Daily updates - pic and video
Great looking video - very high res
Great looking pics - very high res
Site ownership that cares deeply about the members' opinions
New elements that indicate that the future is bright
Very easy and clear site navigation
Fast download times for zips and vids
Cons:
Overall site design could be "prettier"
Bottom Line:
If you like slender, shaved young women with small, natural breasts, ALS Scan is heaven.
The vids and pics on this site are just glorious. The management of the site are consistently looking for new ways to make the site better and more exciting, they consistently seek feedback from the members and will reply substantively to e-mails. The thing that I love about this site is that there is an appreciation for the multiple aspects of what makes a young woman hot - her silliness, her sexual heat, her hints of shy-ness, her tomboy aspects, etc. You can see that all on display here, especially in the wonderful, long high res vids, many of which have a behind-the-scenes character, where you get to see these gorgeous young women really relax and share themselves with you.

Pros:
This is a Grooby site combining what used to be 3 stand-alone sites - Asian American TGirls, Ladyboy.XXX & Ladyboy-Ladyboy so there are quite extensive archives along with a steady stream of updates. The site is regularly updated Monday-Friday with a new video and a photoset that goes along with it. The best thing about the site is the attractiveness of their models. Out of the 20 updated in November, I would count at least 15 as being attractive, which in the world of ts porn is quite a high percentage. And if you were to search their models by Top Rated - easy to do - there's a whole lot of babes. And if you are looking back at the archives several years, the 720 p videos they had in 2016 look quite good. Once a week, they also add a bonus video & photoset from across the world of Grooby, including such beauties as Daisy Daylor. These are downloadable as is everything on the site.
Cons:
As I say, this a combination of what used to be 3 sites. They seem to have given up on Asian American TGirls. They had frequent updates for that site up to the end of January, and there has been exactly 1 update from that site since then. So be warned if that was your main interest in this site. So the current updates are all varying from the 2 ladyboy sites. This is all solo material - perhaps if you dig in the archives, you'll find something to contradict that, but it's basically all solo stuff and shot in a very basic way - get the model, put her in the hotel room and have her on the couch or the bed showing off her outfit, then stripping and showing off her bod and masturbating. The bonus material does add a bit of variety as they frequently have couples material there, but again be warned that you're going to be seeing solo stuff on this site.
Bottom Line:
This is an awesome collection of ladyboy material. There are almost 6,000 scenes on this site. There are over 3,000 models on this site. While Asian American T-girls are definitely the minority, there is 1 scene at least with the awesome Ren Rika, who did a few scenes with Grooby before becoming a mainstream fashion model. The newest videos can be downloaded in 480 p, 720 p, 1080 p or 2160 p (4K). The photos download in a zip and are 1920 x 2560. If you are a novice to TS porn and are looking for the best ladyboy material, I would say that the choice is between this site and Ladyboy Gold. Both sites have been around a long time and have deep archives. For my tastes, this site has more attractive models. The attraction at Ladyboy Gold is that there is a lot of material of the ladyboys being fucked, inclding their kinkier site, Ladyboy Vice, which is included in the basic subscription to Ladyboy Gold. Both sites handle their business very professionally. If you have issues with any Grooby site, it's very easy to raise it and get a response quickly, in my experience. I should warn you that if you google "Asian American T-girls", there is another network where Grooby puts that site along with various other b-level (for my tastes) Grooby sites so be sure to look under the Asian T-Girl name. The basic price is advertised as $36.99/month or $74.99 for 90 days. As with other TS porn, if you're looking to join this site at a discount, it's best to get on Grooby's mailing list or keep an eye on sites that let you know about discounts on TS porn specifically. There are great deals that come up.

Pros:
Regular updates- usually 5 per day, which is as good as any site I can think of these days
HUGE archive - there's 20 pages of models whose names start with "A" - a few models only have one or two sets - many have 20 or more, so if you like a particular model, you'll have plenty to see of her.
PERSONALITY - I've got to make the comparison to Karups here. I recently joined Karups and - to me, there is no personality - just a bunch of licensed sets. Some of the sets are good, there, but there's no there there for me. I find that to be important because we're talking about attraction to the models here - and when there's no personality to the site or the sets - it's just - here's a set we got of this person - there's something really missing. ATK has its own in-your-face no-frills "bam" element to their stuff no matter which photographer's work it is - it still looks like ATK.
The site is maintained well through-out - a challenge for a site this large.
Cons:
The "con" side of the personality issue is a formulaic quality to the work - you're going to see so many images in clothes, so many pussy-spread shots, ass-spread shots, etc. What can I say? That's ATK for you - you get the bad with the good.
Not all the updates are new. Saturday's updates were all sets that had been posted to ATK Hairy back in 2008-2012. That seems to be what they do on Saturday's. What can I say? If the lord took a rest-day, I guess ATK can do so as well.
Unless you're an "every woman is gorgeous" kind of guy, you're probably not going to be attracted to every model here. There is a certain amount of jewel-hunting to be done at this site. But the good thing is that ATK appreciates the jewels. Skin Diamond is one of the most beautiful women alive - the site has 34 photo sets & 10 movies of her. Chloe Amour - 20 photo sets & 3 movies. Holly Hendrix - 26 photo sets & 2 movies, etc.
Vids aren't the highest res possible - no 4K res, etc
Bottom Line:
If you like a variety of ethnic women presented in a more pro-am, more real skin-tone, less glossy & slick and filtered way, this is a great site.
I would have given it a higher score if they were keeping up with the times in terms of vid quality. They're getting to be 5 years plus out of date when it comes to that, it seems to me. Plus the formulaic quality of their work cuts against the rating for me.
But I really like this site. I like the ATK style because the filtered stuff just depresses me. Women with no skin tone are not as sexy as women with skin tone. Sets that are just thrown out there and posted as "here's another one" are not as sexy as sets that feel like "hey, we really like this girl and we want to see lots more of her - here's a cute outfit we thought she looked good in and out of".
The PU price of $19.95 is a great one - and if you get on ATK's mailing list, they're doing occasional deals of multiple sites as a bundle, which is cool.

Pros:
Gorgeous models in great sexy photosets, well-photographed
Galleries viewable - and downloadable - in 3 sizes - 1000, 2000 and 2500 pixels for most sets, some larger if I remember correctly
Great looking site - really attractive
Lots of opportunity to rate photosets, vids, models and to see highest rated photosets, vids, models as a result
Excellent, really seamless navigation
Consistent, clearly documented updating
Fine network of bonus sites with membership
Cons:
Um, I don't know - the models don't jump off the computer and fuck you?
Seriously, I can't think of any Cons, so I'll give 2 suggestions for other elements that could make this fine site even more exciting:
1) Periodic live events - web cam shows archived for members that can't make the original broadcast
2) HD Video - I would love to see these models in even higher res video
Bottom Line:
If you're looking for hard-core stuff, you're not going to find it here - nor do they advertise it as being here. But if you love gorgeous women photographed in the sun where you get to see them up-close and personal, this site is very exciting and sexy. I assume that the material here is a mix of exclusive & non-exclusive. What matters to me is that it is excellent material. They seem to be going for a very sunny vibe. The site design is pink pastel and the photosets & vids tend to also be very light and sunny - lots of poolside stuff - all of which I love when I'm seeing models this gorgeous. I was excited by this site the first day I saw it and I find myself excited by this site every day I go back to it. That's rare and it's a sign of a great site. The people who run it seem to be very engaged with their customers & I hope that this continues.
I highly recommend this site.

Pros:
This site/network never really developed its own identy, in my book. it's a collection of scenes - some solo, some boy/girl, some girl/girl. A couple of years ago, the Twisty's Hard material went to this site and I suppose that is the closest to an identity that this site has - it tends to be on the glam side of things, even when it's going a kinky direction. New updates currently come 1 update per week. This has slowed down from 1 update every 3 days in October 2020, so COVID-19 or just disinterest on the part of the site owners are slowing things down here. There are a lot of hot babes here - recent updates feature Scarlit Scandal, Alexis Tae, Vanna Bardot, Sabina Rouge, all of whom are freaking gorgeous. New scenes are available in 4 sizes, 320 p, 480 p, 720 p & 1080 p - no 4K, each scene has a gallery. Photos download at 2000 x 3000 and the galleries are easily scrollable on the site as well.
Cons:
Like Twisty's "Network", this site has had a major purge for reasons not explained anywhere. The August 2020 TBP review referred to 1,548 scenes. Now, almost exactly 5 months later, there are 1,131 scenes on the site, including the updates in those 5 months. As to the "Network" claim of this site, that's all in the past. Babes Unleashed was last updated Jan 2018. Black Is Better was last updated Jan 2019. Elegant Anal was last updated June 2020. Office Obsession was last updated December 2017. Step Mom Lessons was last updated April 2020. So what you've got left is basically a light version of Twisty's Hard - in the past, they have mixed up solo and boy/girl scenes. Recent updates have been all boy/girl. Who knows what the future holds, or if they'll get completely bored of this site and slow down updates or remove more of what's here.
Bottom Line:
Bottom line - this site would be the definition of average if the site hadn't divested itself of several hundred scenes in the past 5 months. I can't give this site less than a 60 when they've got some really hot babes in scenes that look good at 720 p with good production values and sound & everything done entirely competently. But I can't give more than a 60 to a site that's losing hundreds of scenes in a 5 month period and is slowing its updates by 1/2. I got this site quite a while ago as an add-on when there was a nice sale to do so, but I quite honestly can't imagine why anybody would go out of their way to join this site at this point in time when AdultTime, for instance, has plenty of material like the material found here, as well as lots of other material, updated daily, etc.

Pros:
Consistent updates, 6 days a week, Vids posted Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Photo sets posted Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday
100% Exclusive Content
Very responsive Customer Service
Lots of models that I really like
A Unique personality to the site
Cons:
If you're not joining using any "Special"s, the $29.95 price would be high
The navigation is idiosyncratic. You can be looking for particular photo-sets and not seeing them in the "Pictures" area, becaus the site categorizes them as Behind The Scenes sets.
If you're into only the most prime-cut models, the affection of the site for models, such as Jade Hsu, that are a bit out of shape, may be a real turn-off for you - this is more a warning than a real "Con", since it's a matter of taste
Bottom Line:
The bottom line is this: I really like this site because there's a real personality to this site.
The creative people involved in this site really like sex. They like sweaty sex. They like sex with women that smoke and drink too much and don't take care of themselves as well as they should, but are fucking banshees in the sack.
There are a lot of sites out there with the most prime-cut models that appear on this site, such as Monika Vesela, who is a real beauty that I'm happy to see all over.
But hardly anyone is posting sets of Jade Hsu these days because she's a bit out of shape. You see less of Brittany Skye these days because she's getting a tad heavy.
You know what? These women radiate sex! These women are fucking hot and the creative team involved in this site are smart enough to appreciate that and so we get to see them here.
The regular price is high here, but if you've had any membership at any of their other sites, they periodically send out e-mails inviting you to join this site at a reduced price of $19.95.
At that price, this site is a good deal because there is real artistry here and that's never anything to spit at, though if you were spitting in the mouth of the sexy Jade Hsu, she'd probably like it and spit right back - I don't know about you, but I'd find that a tremendous turn-on!

Pros:
I've been checking out all of the related sites here to see what's going on in terms of scenes disappearing, so it's time to look at Brazzers itself. TBP's review in mid-2020 referred to 9,825 scenes. Now on February 1, 2021, after all of the updates between then and now, there are 7,101 scenes on the site - so once again we're talking about thousands of scenes going bye-bye with no explanation over the course of just 7-8 months. Brazzers currently updates with 2 scenes a day, which is a step up from what they were doing in September 2020, so it's interesting to see this site increasing their rate of updates while related sites are decreasing their rate of updates. New scenes have 4 d/l options - if your membership includes downloads - that top out at 1080 p - no 4K here. Each scene has a photo gallery, which can be scrolled on the site, and these days their galleries run in the 150-200 photo range. A few years ago, their photo galleries tended to be much larger.
Cons:
I really dislike the download method they have now on all their related sites. The sites I think are most user-friendly, you right-click on a link you want to download and you can direct it wherever you want it to be on your computer or related drives, it's easy to rename them, etc. With this whole network, right-clicking won't get you anything, you just have to left click and have it go to your downloads, where you have to do the extra work to move it or rename it, etc. It's just not user-friendly or the best way to do things. The other chief con, as I said, is that thousands of scenes - 28% of the content of the entire site - is gone in a span of 7-8 months with no explanation or warning to the members - "hey, if you want scenes that fit such-and-such parameters, download them in the next 30 days because they'll be gone. Actually, Brazzers stopped all communication with their members when they did away with pornstar punishment years ago because there was such disappointment...
Bottom Line:
and frustration over that - within 30 days, the members forum was gone and there has never been anything to replace it. This site is run by a you-get-what-you-get company, and not in a "we're a fun bunch of eccentrics" way, but in a "who cares, there's always more people to join if you leave" way. That being said, it's a solid site that has a lot of good material here. Brazzers reputation was for big-boobed MILF's to be accentuated with an occasional schoolgirl scene thrown in. But looking over just this month's updates, there's a lot more diversity than that here. There are a lot of hot natural-bodied performers being featured, including Ana Foxxx, Jewelz Blu, Alexis Tae, Eliza Ibarra, Abella Danger, Kenzie Reeves, etc, as well as the MILF types like Paige Owens, Rachel Starr & Phoenix Marie. There's also a lot of ethnic diversity in their performers, lots of hot African American women, a fair number of Latinas, and some hot Asian babes as well. There was a time when Brazzers did monthly live shows. Those were fun. I don't even see the archives for those any more. These days, the big push is for members to join Brazzers+, which is kind of an OnlyFans within Brazzers. I don't even understand it, to be honest. The 1-day event they did to promote it was kind of a disaster - they had a bunch of their featured performers doing cam shows through Brazzers+ but there were so many technical problems that the fans were really nasty about it and the performers were upset. And of course, Brazzers had no tech or other staff assigned either as technical support or chat moderators to help the situation. That's Brazzers for you in a nutshell.
Huge-ass vids that look great - really sharp - real HD
Pics are also large and sharp and look good
Clara-G is a babe
Cons:
Raul Christian is a major turn-off. When it comes to rough sex, I have my radar turned way up, which I believe is appropriate, because if men are going to be treating women roughly, you have to be fairly certain that it's consensual play and not abuse - and Raul C comes off to me as an abusive asshole - and when I see Clara G flinch when he shoves her before she collects herself and puts on a smile, I feel a little sick.
No updates lately. What the fuck? This site hasn't won me over enough to leave me in the lurch update-wise and there haven't been any updates since I joined.
There are no longer any bonus sites as part of your membership, so they eliminated that extra value at the same time that the rate of their updates fell of a cliff.
Download speeds are slow - and if you just leave your system running with a download manager, the downloads break off before they are done.
Bottom Line:
Update or shut the fucking site down is my attitude here.
Since the end of July, there have been 4 updates to this site and they are all just archives of live shows. That's crap, in my book.
Clara G herself is a hot babe and left to her own devices, doing a solo scene or doing a scene with a single babe that she's hot for, she can do great stuff. Why that couldn't result in at least weekly updates to this site is beyond me, so I have to say that there is no justification.
While this site promotes itself as being the wildest of the wild, it's really not. Sunny Leone is not one of the wilder porn babes in the universe and Clara G is flat-out not creative enough to get a wild scene out of her.
This site proves the brilliance of John Stagliano to me, who brings in enough wild cards so that he can almost always get things to that next level of excitement and make you go "ooooooohhhhh". Clara G is nowhere near that level of creativity and her scenes don't have that feel of danger, of newness of flying without a net - except her solo scenes and some moments of her interactions with really wild babes, such as Sasha Grey.
I can't recommend this site, though I was able to get it at quite a decent price, because if you start to sign up for the site, fill out the first page that includes your e-mail address, but don't follow through the rest of the "join", they'll e-mail an offer to join for $19.95 for a month. Still scenes don't excite me in any consistent way.
Plus a site that has files as huge as this one does ought to have servers that can effect downloads of at least 400 kbs/second - at least if you're using a download manager. This site does not deliver that in any consistent way.
My advice to anyone attracted to the type of material that this site promises - join Buttman.com and you'll have Jay Sin's excellent site as well as a dozen or so other updates per week or join the Evil Angel premium addition to Videobox and you'll be assured several updates per week.

Pros:
Crissy is hot!
While Crissy is now retired, the site is still adding 1 photoset a week
Nice variety of Crissy material - a whole section of her fetish material - several bondage photosets - plus lez and some material of Crissy having hetero sex - seeing her incredible bootie bouncing while she's being fucked is a sweet sight!
Lots of bonus sites - LonnieWaters.com, NataliaCruze.com, AmateursGoneBad.com & GlamourGirlsGoneBad.com
Cons:
Crissy is retired. When it comes to a site focused on a particular model and that model is retired, well the level of interaction with that model is going to be nil - of course, that is the case with this site.
b/g Hard-core material is limited - 6 photosets and 2 vids
Non-exclusive content. There is not a lot of exclusive content in this whole collection of sites. Probably the AmateursGoneBad.com stuff has been seen the least - and they have some hot stuff there - Nautica Thorn for example
Bottom Line:
If you've got a jones for Crissy and you haven't been a member of sites such as Twisty's or SexyBabes.tv, you're going to be more impressed than if you have seen her work at those other sites, because you'll have seen a lot of the stuff here before.
But with the sheer quantity of quality content available through joining this site, I've got to give it at least an 80 - If you've got the mind-set where bonus sites count to value, there's quite a bit of value here - I was happy to see the number of porn star shoots included in the AmateurGirls site - these are sets with lower production values, of course, but when you're talking about babes as hot as Nautica Thorn, for example, it's fun to see her simpler photo sets.
On the other hand, the lack of exclusive content is keeping me from staying past 2 months - virtually everything here is out there far and wide on other sites - for people who aren't members of other sites, this is a fine place to find it.
Navigation is simple - very few bells and whistles. Some links on Crissy's site are glitchy.
If Crissy ever decides that being a devout Christian and showing us her fine bod aren't a huge contradiction or she just misses being naughty, I for one will welcome this hot babe back with completely open arms. Crissy is hot!

Pros:
This site has the archive of Sexy Teen Sandy, including pics, vids and webcam shows
Some of the newer models are hot
Cons:
The main page is completely dishonest:
There are NO live shows
While I'm not looking for Ipod vids, I also consider it completely dishonest when a site advertises them on the home page and doesn't have them anywhere that I can see
The site goes for periods of time with no updates at all
There is no support - e-mails with questions about updates, etc, may as well be sent to your aunt Martha - the one who doesn't own a computer - for all the response you're going to get
Bottom Line:
If you're in love with Sandy and want to see her earlier stuff, this is the place to see it all and at least they haven't eliminated any.
Whenever a star model leaves a company like this, it's a challenge to replace her with other models that will draw people in - all the more reason, I think, to be honest about what you're promising people.
This site started out well after Sandy left, adding frequent updates, as promised of various models, then it started getting all freaky - sometimes whole sections of pics of new models wouldn't even be available.
This is not a dependable site. It's being dishonestly promoted and handled in a clumsy and stupid way.
I can't recommend it to anyone that doesn't crave frustration at this point, though they have the foundation to build something decent if they care to.

Pros:
Deep archives with great scenes of many of the best pornstars of the past 20 years - Lanny Barby, Devon, Teagan Presley, Skin Diamond, Jenna Haze, Nautica Thorn among them.
Lots of variety of performers. I was going to write a review complaining about another site that was boring me to tears with the samey-ness of their performers - one slender white girl after another. But I thought it would be more fun to say good things about a site that has a lot of variety in their performers, including lots of fine Black women - Demi Sutra, Ana Foxxx, Scarlit Scandal, Kira Noir among them. Digital Playground has been known mainly for their blockbusters & story-oriented releases. I couldn't care less about the stories in most porn - but I'm a big fan of the Jack's Teen America series & the Control & Throb movies from the past & the Flixxx & Episodes' series that they have done more recently
Cons:
COVID-19 is having a major impact on their releases of new material. They went from releasing a new scene every 3 days in April to releasing a new scene every 2 weeks starting at the end of April - now they're re-releasing scenes once a week.
As someone who joined the site some time ago with one of those "join for life for very little money" deals so long as I have a Brazzers membership, I am grandfathered in to download vids, but I understand that new members do not share in that good fortune, so be careful if joining to know exactly what the terms are so far as downloads are concerned.
The situation with photos on this site is terrible. You click on a scene and there are no options to see the photos related to the scene. The only way to see photos on this site is to pick "galleries" as an option from the "extras" drop down menu. Even if you click on a performer's name from a gallery of hers, there are no options to see all of her photo galleries.
No 4K videos
Bottom Line:
This site's been around a long time. DP has probably been most heavily promoted around the Island Fever series they did, which I found very pretty, but incredibly frustrating with the music eradicating the sex sounds - blasphemy in my book - and their comical features, which really aren't funny at all to me, and their feature girls, some of whom, like BiBi Jones, did the worst work of their porn careers for DP. So it's easy to think, "nothing going on here" - but, as I say, dig in the archives and you can find some incredibly hot material and, at least up to the point that the pandemic hit, they were going forward with both guns blazing. They haven't been as creative as sites such as Adult Time & Evil Angel in taking on the challenge of this period. They've kind of thrown up their hands in a "What you gonna do?" sort of way. If you haven't been a member in a long time, I bet you would find a lot of material to enjoy here. DP has always had high production values and all of their scenes look really great. They offer their videos in 4 sizes from 320 p to 1080 p. Their download speeds, to me, are great. The file sizes won't kill your storage - an average 1080 p scene is less than 2 gb. They currently show 4,278 scenes on the site. I have never found a scene offered on the site that didn't download and play well, even from deep in their archives, so it's a site that's kept up well.

Pros:
High quality content, all exclusive
New series being uploaded to site in addition to their DVD's
DVD's that have previously been held back, such as the Island Fever series, are now being uploaded
Frequent updates
Great depth of archives
Top porn performers
Cons:
Streaming Only
Confusing multiple membership options, including "DP Premium", which claims to have unlimited downloads of Digital Playground, Elegant Angel, Evil Angel, Vivid, Wicked, Private and other studios - but it seems like you have to join to see what they're really offering.
Bottom Line:
There is one - and only one - reason why I'm bothering to review this site and that is that this site is getting better in a major way. It is VERY unusual to see a site that has been around as long as Digital Playground get better, so when I see a site like this get much better, I've got to bring it to the attention of other PU's. This site has always been the place where Digital Playground put up their DVD's that they wanted to offer for streaming. It's always been streaming-only. At times they have also had cam shows by their contract stars. They aren't doing those at present. What's new with the site is their web series and scenes that they are putting up on the site in addition to their DVD's. And these aren't crap no-budget scenes with bottom-feeder performers. They've been putting up scenes with the best up-and-comers such as Alina Li and Sara Luvv - great scenes too! And they have a new series starting tomorrow - a porn version of Sons of Anarchy starring the glorious Bonnie Rotten that looks very exciting from the previews. In a time when other sites are giving less and less to their members, it's pretty striking that this site is going in the other direction entirely. I hope that it lasts! My 89 score is because of the "Streaming Only" of this site. No site that doesn't offer downloads of their vids should be graded as excellent, in my opinion.

Pros:
Gorgeous women involved in lots of kinky action.
Excellent work, technically.
High quality pics, high quality vids
Consistent updates - once a week for a new set
IF you can plan on remaining a member, you will have access to 2 additional excellent sites with the same high standards and update schedule PER MONTH, at the point that you are entering your 4th month of membership, you are getting access to a new set of pics and vids every single day from one of the sites
Cons:
This is mainly material recycled from the premium 21st Sextury sites, such as Pix & Video, so if you have a current membership to that site or were recently a member of that site, be aware that you may not be getting brand new material.
If you are not willing or able to maintain ongoing membership for months at a time, you will not have access to all of the material from the other sites.
Bottom Line:
Keep the "Cons" warning in mind, but if you have not had a membership to a 21st Sextury premium site before and you like hot European models beautifully photographed and video'd doing all kinds of kinky stuff - DP'd in this site with other kinks becoming available through the bonus sites - this site is wonderful, as are the related sites, which you can see listed on the home page.
Personally I love the 21st Sextury style - the lurid colors, the sexy outfits, the roaming camera - so I thoroughly enjoy this site.
And some sites in the network, such as Lez Cuties, will appeal to fans of more "natural" porn sites, such as Sapphic Erotica.
So if you feel that you can commit for a lengthy membership, be prepared for a great smorgasbord of fun.

Pros:
With all the cookie cutter sites out there, Evil Angel is most definitely NOT. EA is a company that was based on the idea that they would provide a platform for their directors to do their own type of porn, as idiosyncratic as it was, and EA would help them distribute it, and help them make as much money from their work as possible. EA continues in that same vein today. John Stagliano's work is not like Jan Sin's work, whose work is not like Joey Silvera's work, whose work is not like Rocco Siffredi's work, whose work is not like Proxy Paige's work, etc. So when you're a member of EA, you're going to be able to explore a lot of different visions of what intense porn can be, by really talented people, and they're not fitting into someone's requirement of "it has to have this, that & whatever to fit in EA". I really respect the way that EA dealt with the pandemic. When they realized, it was going to affect their ability to create new product, they addressed it (more in botom line)
Cons:
I can't say that I like every single scene on this site, but that's true of every site that I've ever joined.
Bottom Line:
EA's tag line is "Life's Too Short For Soft Porn". If that tag line strikes a chord with you, intrigues you, makes you want to see what people can do with that concept, it's hard for me to see how you would be disappointed by this site. As I wrote above, they've got a large group of directors creating product that they distribute, and some of them - Stagliano, Silvera, Rocco - are easily among the best film-makers that have ever made porn. Joey Silvera makes almost all of his performers look better than they have ever looked anywhere. Rocco gets more intense performances out of his partners than they have ever had for anybody else. And Stagliano is just an incredible film-maker and a fascinating guy. Part of what I really like about EA is that it's an adult site in every way. They don't do things in bush-league ways & that pays dividends for the site & for members of the site. Mike Adriano used to distribute all of his stuff through EA. At a certain point, he decided to pursue his dream of having his own sites. EA had a good enough relationship with him that they host 4 new streaming-only Mike Adriano scenes every month. Promos for Adriano's sites & great content for EA members. EA has a great relationship with Adult Time, so they have partnered with Adult Time to present live shows throughout the pandemic & they also worked together on Riley Ried's recent "I Am Riley" compilation, which also included material from Riley's site. EA also did a porn-at-home series to provide more new unique content during the pandemic & encouraged fans & EA directors to create compilations of EA scenes. If you want to get more into what EA's film-makers think about the art & business of porn, there are videos where EA directors get into it in depth, including fascinating conversations about what is the difference between rough sex that is enlivening to all the participants and rough sex that is just using & exploiting the female performer(s). That's an important conversation for film-makers that are exploring the harder side of porn to be having. This is a site that is made to be explored. There are various channels that you can dig into featuring different directors. There's a huge list of pornstars on EA you can explore, and often when you bring one up, the site will display suggestions of other pornstars on the site, whose work you might want to check out. You could play challenge games trying to come up with any top pornstars of the past period that do not have scenes on this site. The site currently has 19,025 scenes, including bts & conversational videos. That's an incredible amount of material. There's a sexual preference lever so you can choose how much lesbian, bisexual or trans material you want displayed, if any. Current scenes have 8 options for downloads, from 160 p to 2160 p (4K). Photos per scene vary greatly. Some directors shoot hundreds of photos per scene, some directors very few. Photos can be downloaded as zips & the photos to be 1280 x 1920. I also really like that this site doesn't sit on it's laurels. They're always looking for new directors, they're often coming up with interesting projects, like the one they did a while back with cam girls doing their first professional shoots with top film-makers. I HIGHLY recommend this site.

Pros:
Mammoth Network - I joined through the JonniDarkoXXX.com - that's not listed at PU, which is why I'm doing my review at this site's listing - there are individual sites for most of the active EA directors, Buttman.com is Stagliano's site, and they also have sites geared to particular niches - cockjugglers, euroangels, etc - which collect the same material along those niche lines
Frequent updates to the network - many of the sites are updating once a week, Buttman.com is now updating 3 times a week, every day there is something new to see and it's not crap - it's really good stuff
Video quality is pretty good. EA directors tends to favor a raw style, so their stuff is not as "clean" as Jules Jordan, for instance, but I watch the vids at 200% on a large monitor and it looks good to me - dimensions show as 640 X 480 - Buttman.com is posting some HD vids
New feature - zips of all photos & vid grab sets
Recently had first webcast
Cons:
There's an unweildy quality to the network because of the multiple forms of organization - by niche and by director. They seem to be working to get this under control - they're just now trying to get performers' names on all vids so you can search by performers' names across the network - but it doesn't work perfectly at this point. I give them points for moving in the right direction
Getting a handle on updates can also be confusing - what shows as most recent updates on one site might not be the same as what shows as most recent updates on another site - so for maximum enjoyment, you have to be open to that kind of exploration.
Exploration is also needed to get the best price for the network. I joined through JonniDarkoXXX, as I said - If I had known, I could have joined through Buttman.com and probably gotten a better deal - they just lowered the multi-month price there, so perhaps I would have missed it anyway - but again, this is an example of the unwieldiness.
Bottom Line:
If you like Evil Angel's balls-to-the-wall style, this is a great way to get access to a wide range of their stuff - and if you join on a mutlti-month basis, they make it a great deal.
For whatever reason, this network seems to be a current focus of EA - so they're working on making significant improvements - the labelling of vids has gotten much better within the last week or two, the photo & screen grab zips just began this week, they just did their first webcast event on 4/10/09 - and they had the archive up for viewing within a few days.
Excitement factor of the material, generous updates and forward motion quality-wise of the site are 3 key factors to me. If they go to higher res vids across the network, label the HD vids more clearly and work out some of the glitchy and unweildy aspects, I would rate them higher.
Just to lay out the amount of material here:
JonniDarko's site - 20 scenes plus - updates weekly
Nacho Vidal's site - 120 scenes plus - updates a bit more sporadically Buttman.com - 220 scenes plus - updates 3 times a week - usually 1 exclusive scene for the site a week
AssJazzDuro - 20 scenes plus - updates sporadically
Jay Sin's site - 40 scenes plus - updating multiple times of the week - Jay Sin's stuff was the real "find" for me - candy-colored fantasy filth - very innovative, arty, new - very exciting Manuel Ferrara's site - 60 scenes plus - updating weekly - great stuff here - gorgeous women! Justin Slayer's site - 140 scenes plus - updates sporadically John Leslie's site - 140 scenes plus - updates sporadically Joey Silvera's site - 240 scenes plus - updates weekly more or less - a chunk of his stuff is she-male material - though not recent updates
Christoph Clark's site - 220 scenes plus - updates weekly Jake Malone's site - 60 scenes plus - updates weekly Rocco Siffredi's site - 300 scenes plus - no updates since 7/16/08
So hopefully this gives a picture of this pretty large network - unlike other networks, there's not 1 or 2 quality sites and the rest is dross. There's hours of quality porn to check out here.
I don't use a download manager, and I'm not a site vacuum-cleaning guy, so I can't comment on how that technology would function with this network - I've never run into download limits here, but I download a couple of scenes a day, so I'm not exactly testing the limits.
There is a page to send comments and while I haven't received personal responses to all comments that I've sent, it's clear that they are reading them and paying attention to member comments and upgrading the network accordingly.
John S is the only director that I've seen making himself directly accessible to members to comment on Buttman.com and he's very interested in member feedback, though he's got his own obsessions that he's going to follow through on - which is as it should be, in my opinion.

Pros:
If you like school-girl themed tease, with a variety of cute girls, this site hits the spot
Pics look great - recently shot pics are at 1330 X 2000
There's a variety of non-nude to nude, including sex toy play and a small amount of boy-girl action
Vids, while not HD, also are good looking (properties on the vid pertaining to the same pic set I looked at for measurement above are 720 X 400)
Members here get access to a large number of Phil-Flash sites that are not being updated any longer, including Next Door Nikki, Seanna Teen, Taylor Twins and Phil Flash.com, which itself includes the archives of several no-longer-updated tease sites, such as Tiffany Teen. This is the motherlode of teen tease with lots of sexy clothes, cute girls & awesome ass shots.
Very little photo treatment mucking things up!
Cons:
Phil Flash is the director - it's a one-man show. Updates come when Phil gets to them - usually once a week there will be a pic set with a vid, but not always.
Updates are frequently older material re-released or released for the first time on a site rather than a zip set with a separate buy price (part of the classic solo-girl site business model)
Vids are mainly vids of photo-shoots.
No web cam action at this point in time
Bottom Line:
Porn is very subjective. I've read comments from PU members that have joined Phil-Flash site, such as Next Door Nikki, and been bored.
I'm a huge fan of hot young 18-23 year old tease, and Phil Flash is a master of just the kind of tease I like - hot young women in sexy clothes with tiny thongs or sexy panties with lots of upskirt and ass and leg shots.
If you like that stuff, you'll find a lot of stuff here to enjoy. This site was started when Phil was bored of non-nude, which he'd mainly done when he stared with models like Tiffany Teen and Megan QT. So there's more nudity and toy play, etc in FDAU, while you have access to the classic non-nude stuff, which I still find very hot and erotic - more than most of the solo-girl stuff being done today.
To get the most out of this network, you'll have to do a lot of logging into multiple sites and clicking on "Bonus" whenever you see it. I suppose that all of the Phil-Flash sites included in membership here might eventually be integrated together, but they aren't now.

Pros:
One of the oldest consistently operating TS model sites - since 2003, according to the scene information. The site's still going strong with 4 updates per week - Frank is the producer for all the material on this site, I believe, as well as producing sets for other Grooby sites. About 3/4 of the models these days are Thai, with 1/4 Latinas, mainly Brazilian. I find Frank's tastes pretty darn good. I'm rating the site a 90 for the quality of the models and the consistency of the content. New videos can be downloaded in 480, 720, 1080 or 4K. Each video has an accompanying photo set. Photo sets have about 200 images and are 1733 x 2600 pixels. Photos have some filtering, but nothing excessive, in my opinion. The oldest scenes are downloadable at 240 - we're talking 2003 material, so the fact that you can download them at all is a good thing.
Cons:
The cons are minor compared to the pros. It's a very simple, fairly formulaic approach here. You have a model in a simple outfit and they pose and strip and then masturbate for your entertainment - not a lot of production values here, scenes appear to be in hotel rooms or very simple sets. The last hardcore scenes on the site were years ago 2018 had 1 and 2016 had several. I suppose that Grooby wants you to join their sites that are more focused on TS models fucking for that. If you want to see more TS models getting fucked by guys, LadyBoy Gold would be a good recommendation for that, since this site doesn't have that material.
Bottom Line:
It's good to know there are things you can depend on in this world. You can depend on this site to keep dishing up hot TS models with new scenes 4 days a week. If you like a model, there are often multiple scenes with her and if she has appeared on other Grooby sites, they'll tell you that as well. Navigation on the site is very simple but effective. Click on Scenes and you can check out the latest scenes or the top rated scenes. It's one-click to get to the hard-core scenes if you want. News will give you a video on Grooby's "week of" so you can see what models other sites are featuring. And there's a Bonus Sets page that includes new hard-core material from other Grooby sites and it's one click to get to Grooby TV which is a 24 hour stream of TS porn included with your membership.
Current Member for over 6 months (at the time of review).
Pros:
Consistent updates - 18 a week - updated weekly
Years of archives, all easily accessible, all work
Good navigation by model name, alphabetical order, top rated list, etc
Grooby quality - in almost all their sites, they run a tight ship - everything's going to work well, including the deep archives
Variety of models - the models come from a variety of their sites - Brazilian Transexuals, Grooby Girls, LadyboyLadyboy, Black T-Girls, Shemale Yum - usually, there are 3 Brazilian sets, 1 of which is t-girl/t-girl, 3-5 ladyboy sets, 5 Black model sets, 5 white model sets per week.
I like their suggestions - if you find a model or set you like, the site if very good at suggesting other sets for you that you will also like.
Cons:
The presentation is very plain, for the most part - the model(s) will be in a hotel room posing, usually starting out clothed, then stripping and playing with herself, showing you her ass, etc, then cumming. There aren't much in the way of production values, there's not a tremendous variety of types of locations, rarely any story or scenario, a lot of models are completely quiet through most of the scene.
Bottom Line:
The # of updates and depth of the archives is the selling point of this site, to me. Even if you were only interested in ladyboy models, 5 scenes per week is a good update rate for most sites and you get 13 other scenes as well. Personally, it's the Brazilians and Asian models for me, for the most part, but with the depth of the archives, you will have early scenes of most of who have become popular trans star performers here, because no company has produced a fraction of the trans content that Grooby has. To be honest, the only Grooby site that I've every had regrets about joining was their Japanese site because the last time I joined, I found it to be all retreads. Other than that, Grooby is producing tons of trans porn material - most of which is, as I described above, very basic - model in a hotel room playing with herself. The question is whether you find the models attractive or not. The site makes it very easy to browse before joining so you wouldn't be buying a pig in a poke.

Pros:
There are few truly unique websites - this is one.
In terms of her body art, her hair styling, her make-up, Masuimi puts a lot of effort into facillitating a whole performance - frequently very campy/funny as well as sexy. Imagine a live-action half-Asian Betty Boop as done by Ralph Bakshi and the guys who did Looney Tunes cartoons and you've got Masuimi's sensibilities.
Masuimi is brilliant.
Her husband does a lot of her photography/videography - she works with a lot of other really talented artists as well.
Masuimi is very engaged with the site - more than I've ever seen her.
Updates are very frequent - several times a week - some vids, some photo sets.
It's a very interactive site - lots of encouragement to comment on the material and to engage with her other quirky members.
Cons:
Vids are 640 X 360, so not the biggest around - made to make it easy for her world-wide members to stream on the site.
Pics tend to be 667 X 1000 - again, made to fit nicely on the page in her site - and design is very important to Masuimi.
So - not the biggest for us size freaks - but they all look good, so this is just a "could use improvement" note.
Her video cam cut out after 1 hour, so it was cam-less chat for me after that - again, something to work on - but since she was typing, I had no problem continuing to chat with her and the other people in the chat - a very fun time, actually.
Bottom Line:
I've been a member of her site a few different times over the years. Masuimi is a more mature, more calm, nicer person than she was a number of years ago. I remember some pretty abrupt responses to suggestions I made to the site years ago. Now her attitude is all, "let me know if there's anything I can do to make it better." And I think that's sincere. She has upped the inter-activity of the site by leaps and bounds.
She's been doing her site for 7 years plus. At that point in time, most models have cut way back on updates, let the site go to seed in many ways, done away with forums and cam shows etc. So to see a site that seems more vital and energized and alive and creative after 7 years is very cool.
Her newest stuff is the most fun and some of the sexiest I've ever seen her do.
Body-wise, Masuimi has always worked to keep herself VERY fit. I recall one point several years ago where she looked too thin, but that was for a short period of time. She looks great now and her new boobs fit her whole cartoon fetish asthetic.
"Charming" is not a word I would use to describe a lot of internet model sites, but that is the word that comes to mind for Masuimi's site and her work. I really like her sense of humor and I especially like that she doesn't draw a line between the humor and the sexiness.
Oh - and the price - $12.95/month - for a site with as much of a an archive (700+ photo albums) as this one and with the level of creativity and artistry and unique-ness as this one is pretty damned nice.
So if you're in the mood to check out a sexy fetishy, big-boobed, half-Asian babe with a Betty Boop aesthetic and a wonderful sense of humor, I HIGHLY recommend Masuimi's site!

Pros:
Regular Daily Updates - 1 day pic set, next day related vid set
Lots of options for downloading or streaming vids, including the ability to download in pieces for people with slower connections or smaller hard drives
Three sizes for the pics - 800, 1200 & 2000 px - and you can download a zip in one click
The babes are awesome - mainly Euro babes with sumptuous bods & natural boobs - rare is the update that doesn't make me happy
The navigation is simple and snappy - models are listed by first name, so it's easy to click on a letter and see a bunch of babes to choose from - and they don't do endless updates of just a handful of models, so there are a lot to choose from.
They don't photo-shop the girls to hell. You feel like you're looking at hot women and not just some display of some goober's photo-shop expertise.
Cons:
This is a solo-girl site. You're not going to get sets of girl/girl stuff or boy/girl stuff.
A bit formulaic. Looking at the main "What's New" page, I wouldn't be surprised if a large number of their sets were shot at different areas outside at the same basic location - you get the girl teasing in sexy outfits, then stripping, then masturbating with fingers and then toys.
You're not going to check in one day and see a sexy babe in a bondage outfit or something else crazy and surprising
I've seen some of these sets posted elsewhere - so exclusivity is a question
Bottom Line:
The real test of a site for me is "Do I like what I'm getting? Are the babes hot? Do the pics and vids look good? Do I enjoy the material? Do I want to go back the next day and see their new stuff?"
For me, this site passes that test on an ongoing basis. I really like seeing hot Euro-babes in brightyly colored bras & panties and flouncy little skirts outside with the sun behind them so that their sexy natural bods are shown to their best advantage - just showing off their sumptuous bods and teasing, then putting on a masturbation show with fruit or toys - and there's not some guy talking over it and there's not some annoying music. You can hear the birds or whatever incidental sounds from the wind.
And that's what they do. Is it formulaic and repetitive? I suppose. But I like this stuff. The babes are hot and they don't fuck it up by getting hot babes and then photo-shopping the pics so you can't even see them for all the crap they do to them - take a clue, Twisty's!
The vids are hot and fun to watch and look good full-screen. They're not HD and they don't lie and say that they're HD. They could go HD and that would certainly be nice, but they really don't need to. They look good now, and that's what counts.
Current Member for over 1 month (at the time of review).
Pros:
Excellent rate of updates - almost everyday they have a new full-length vid or photo set added - some days they have multiple updates
Excellent variety - they have great cutie-pie stuff, especially their photo sets. They also have a LOT of very kinky material - and the Japanese take their kinks seriously!
Excellent quality - everything they present, they present in high quality. Full length vids are up to 2.5 gb. I haven't seen other sites that are offering these vids for membership download in that size or quality file sizes.
Download speeds are high quality as well - I generally experience download speeds of 500 kb/sec+
Besides the Gravure (high-quality model pics) and biggest studio releases (Attackers, DAS, S1), they also Uraban (uncensored photo sets - banned in Japan) and uncensored vids as well as weird fetish vids (such as Cat Fight Anal Pro Wrestling)
Cons:
Mosaic issue - any site presenting authentic Japanese erotica is going to have the mosaic issue on most of the top-line Japanese AV being presented - that's a fact of life, and a frustrating one for those of used to Western-style porn
Price - the lowest price available is $59.95 for 2 months. That's quite high as compared to other porn sites. I did as much price-comparing as I could with other similar sites and decided to join this one because of the mix of pics and vids, but the price is high.
Unattractive guys - I don't care personally, to tell the truth, but it seems like there are members of this forum that are turned off if there are unattractive guys in guy/girl scenes. There are lots of them in Japanese video, where if you can get it up on camera, and are willing to be on camera, you can be a male performer.
Download limit - 8 gb/day - not a problem for me, to be honest, but it's there
Navigation - I wish there was a search by category of vid - cosplay, etc
Bottom Line:
I joined this site because I was frustrated at the various Asian porn sites that were only presenting shellaced/photo-shopped photo sets and short vids. I wanted to see good high-quality photos of hot Asian honeys where I could see what they actually looked like instead of how much time the site's photo-shop crew could spend covering them up.
I wanted to see the hottest Japanese AV babes being put through their paces. This site fit the bill and delivers quite well. I love how cute the girls are and I love all the well-filmed kinky stuff they do - the cosplay, schoolgirl themes and gang-bang fantasies are all really hot to me.
I haven't seen other sites presenting this high-quality combo of new photo-sets and new vids that are download-able in this quality.
That also means BIG files - so don't join without a huge hard-drive or DVD burner. You'll just frustrate yourself. The site indicates that you can stream vids and perhaps there are some where that's true - I haven't found them.
I would have rated this site higher if
a) The navigation were better, so I could more easily find the material I'm most interested in
b) The mosaic issue weren't as frustrating as it is to someone raised on Western porn - they do strive to present thin-mosaic and uncensored material when they can get it.
c) I could find more nude and upskirt photo-sets. Most of their photo-sets have clothing, from what I've seen.

Pros:
Jenna's a hot babe
Jenna's new stuff can be seen here exclusively and it's really good
This site is part of a network so that there are other porn babes' sites to access and enjoy and Cam-modelz archives to explore
Included in the network are Jules Jordan's sites - his stuff is not available to download elsewhere that I'm aware and his stuff is among the best porn being created these days.
Pic sets on all sites can be downloaded as zips with pic size as 1200X1600
Vids are a good size also 720X408 and play back well
Jenna's cam shows are very entertaining - she's a great tease
The price is quite reasonable - I believe that I paid $80 or so for a year.
Cons:
If you're a Jenna fan, you'll very likely be frustrated at the lack of updates. The last vid update on Jenna's site was 10/28/10. Jenna has expressed frustration that the people that have responsibility for updating the site with the material she provides aren't. She really needs to get other people to do that.
It's one of the bizarre elements of this network that the various sites seem independent of each other and have responsibility to do their thing independent of Premium Pass, which basically hosts the whole thing.
Some sites update a lot, like Lexi Belle's site - and Lexi can be counted on to do cam shows when advertised. Other sites, like Shawna Lenee's and haven't updated since June 2010.
Some of the porn babes don't show for cam shows when scheduled or have never worked out the Stream-mate kinks so that members of this network actually have access to their shows.
Bottom Line:
Lots to see for new members:
Jenna's site has 149 vids - many exclusive to this site - tease vids - many from her recent DVD's - "Darkside" to the present and 121 photo sets - most are small sets
Jules Jordan's sites - there are a few - but all the material can be accessed through JulesJordan.com - have over 500 vids and over 240 photo sets - updates continue at a good rate on Jules' sites.
Lexi Belle's site started up at the end of January 2009, but she's done a lot for her site, so there are already 89 vids and 79 photosets - she's doing a lot of work for Juliland.com, as is Audrey Bitoni - both of them post their Juliland.com work on their respective sites - that stuff is very odd and surreal - similar to Gregory Dark in his hey-day.
Premium Pass also posts vids and photosets, some of which are actually good, most of which are the type that you'll find on all the porn DVD sites - standard licenced stuff.
The frustrating stuff about this network is the glitchiness - the no-show cam shows by people like Tori Black and Tori Lane or the - no-access cam shows months after they moved to the current network, which they should have figured out by now if they gave a shit.
The lack of recent updates on Jenna's site - especially vids and updated of her cam show archives - pisses me off. Jenna's a BUSY woman and she just needs to find someone reliable to run the site for her and kick whoever she's paying now to the curb.
That fact makes me bring the score of the site and network down to 70. If I were mainly joining because of Lexi Belle, I'd probably score it quite a bit higher.

Pros:
Jules Jordan has been making great gonzo porn for a long time and his site has been active since 2011, according to TBP, so this is another site with a massively deep archive. The list of performers on the site runs to over 800, though this also includes male performers - though you'll see the same male performers in many different scenes - Steve Holmes, for instance, is listed as appearing in 101 scenes on the site. There are over 2300 scenes on the site. Updates come at least every 3 days and lately they have been adding CamSoda scenes, which function as bonuses as they don't replace the every-3-day updates. They advertise that this site includes ManuelFerrara.com, but I'm not sure if all of that site is included as I don't see the latest Khloe Kapri scene from that site on JulesJordan.com, though maybe it w/b added soon. Both Manuel and Jules' scenes are incredibly well filmed, great production values, great camera work, lots of tease - 15 minutes of tease & solo stuff often.
Cons:
Honestly, trying to think of cons with a site this excellent is difficult. This is a site that I join for a month when they have a special a few times a year. If there were more different visions being presented on the site, or if either of them were as wacko as a Rocco Sifredi where you never know what they might do in their next scene, I might join & stay. Jules & Manuel both have their patterns of how they do scenes & that's what you're going to see here, very reliably, very professionally, very well made. The recent scene where Jules meets Vina Sky on the beach & takes her home & fucks her, could be a remake of the scene from a few years ago where Jules meets Amia Miley on the beach & takes her home & fucks her. If you get sick of Jules or Manuel or Steve Holmes, well, you're going to see lots of them on this site. I do see some remastered scenes being released without being labeled as such, if that's a turn-off. It's rare & there is so much new, it's no big issue.
Bottom Line:
One caveat to the lack of different visions - they did do a recent DVD called "Bad Cop Bad City" that has a style similar to Blacked Raw that is different than most of the material on the site - very fun stuff. I hope they experiment more in that way. The bottom line is that this is one of the best sites there is for combining great tease with great hard sex. I've never run across a problem with older scenes not working. Videos are offered for download in 5 different sizes from 360p to 4K. I've never seen the site mess around with "pay extra for downloads" crap. All of Manuel & Jules' scenes have photo sets that can be downloaded as zips as well as zips of 4K screenshots. The screenshots are 3840 x 2160. The photos download as 4000 x 2667. And their scenes come with photo sets of over 100-250+ photos. So if you're a photo fan, as I am, you'll be quite happy. These days TBP is offering this site at $9.95 - I'm not sure if that's only for the first months, but it's a great price for this site. I highly recommend it.
